Very easy to play and a great showcase map and this would be a great learning map for newer users.

Last time I saw real snow in the Los Angeles area was in the 1960's. That was a fun day. The nearby mountains like it much more. San Diego is also the largest Naval Base in the USA. That would be interesting to see. The marine base at Camp Pendleton would be an intresting site too.

Hi Rodea,
I you can make trees snowy, maybe you can even make them look like australian eucalyptus ... it would not be easy, for sure, but if someone can do it, you can. I would need them for the Australia map.

I don't think there is a very good tree to base a eucalyptus on in the games files, but it looks easy to repaint the flowers and leaves. Athough, if you want an eucalyptus like http://www.eyeondna.com/wp-content/uplo ... g-3008.jpg there is a file called oak that has a very good looking oak that cold be made to look like a eucalyptus tree. I just don't know if you can get the oak tree in the game. The oak tree has about 3 or 4 .dds files for the leaves' texture.

The smoke, flames and water ripples are great. But it takes a long time to edit the Nif files when adding them. After pasting in the block for the effect to the nif file, you have to edit the x, y and z locations for it to pop up in the right place. It's nice, but takes a lot of time to add and edit. Also there is an error in the Names file.

You right Lowell...for beginner that is takes a long time to edit in Nifscope, but I only needs a few minute to make them..... :lol:
After pasting and edit in Nifscope in order to that's effects can be run, you have to edit KF file that have connection with NIF File or that's effects can't run... :P
